W's Atlas Tech Pant

I was looking for a versatile pant that could be a wind barrier while running as well as something to use for hiking, every day etc. These work perfectly. I’ve been running in these on top of leggings or shorts to have more air insulation which works well for me. My favorite part of these pants is the elastic at the ankles that doesn’t really noticeable. I have a sept while running hiking, while hanging out during the day unzipped. Very comfy.

For pants that are billed as being weather resistant, they seem short at the ankles (can’t avoid rain, etc. into shoes). They are also quite thin, so unsure about true wind/rain resistance. But, they are well made, comfortable, great pockets and I’ll be happy to wear them casually, just not as “all-weather” pants.

In the spring and fall it's usually cold in the mornings and hot in the afternoons where I live. I needed something lightweight, breathable, fit over my shorts, packable, and easy to off for my long runs. These pants fit the bill and are almost perfect. The only thing I don't like about them in the cuff on the inside. When I put them on my foot always gets hung up on the cuff. Not really a big deal though.

I LOVE the fit of these pants. The waist is a higher rise than the transit or mercury, and I'd say they run a bit bigger. The zippered ankles look great and are easy to get off over shoes once unzipped. I wouldn't run in these in Texas (unless we get another hard freeze, but they are great to wear over shorts or another pair of tights if I need more warmth. I'm taking them bikepacking so not just for running!
